It will easy to reproduce, just run following scripts on *2* difference
terminal at the same time, I think you will hit it in a short time.

#!/bin/bash
while : ; do
        echo 1000000000000 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
        echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages

        echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
done
